My sincere sympathies to Gary and Margaret and Marty and Amanda and all the grandchildren. Gail was always friendly and smiling. She will be missed. May your memories of her bring you comfort.
My deepest condolences to all. She was an amazing person. Missing my visits with her at the farm with a cup of tea. Her wit and humour would make me laugh. She will be sorely missed.
